Nikon 60mm vs 105mm macro lens?

Guest
Which one between the 105mm f/2.8 EX DG and the 60mm F2.8 AF D is better?
I'm planning on using it to do floral macro and bugs, which one would worth it.

As with any lens, the longer it is, the further from the subject you can shoot.
The 105 mm may be best for shooting bugs

I would nmot want to do bugs with that 60,. Personally I'd go for a 100mm tokina and put the difference towards a ring flash
